The Best of Fall: Coco Rocha for Americana Manhasset

Fall is finally here and what better way to usher in the most stylish of seasons than with some fantastic styling inspiration. Not only is Coco Rocha one of my favorites but every single look in her campaign for Americana Manhasset is an absolute winner. Enjoy the breathtaking fall styling inspirations..

Fall fashion is all about creating moods... rustic, intriguing, classic, polished... any mood you like just remember to incorporate color and to accessorize. Color brings life to the most muted fall colors so try a colored pump or flat or a bright sweater or belt. Pile on accessories like bracelets, earrings, or bright and colorful gloves and clutches to elevate basic pieces and rework those you already own.

We are finally all setup in our new studio in Philadelphia and hope to return to regular blogging. If your in Philly- don't be shy, say hi! we'd love to meet our new neighbors! 

A long Hot Summer: Meadow-Ready Ethereal Looks

It's September which means that Summer is winding down, but not before we clock several more long hot summer days. On such hot days there is nothing better than ethereal, Florence Welch-inspired pieces, mixed with white and paired with barely there thin gold wrapped sandals and a shabby-chic late summer updo.

 Ethereal styling is very simple but what makes this look intriguing is the element of individualism; these shots are striking because the women are wearing very basic pieces with a tremendous amount of confidence and personality.  So while your attempting this look- don't try to hard (it will show!), wear only what makes you feel confident and free spirited- this will shine through whatever you wear.

There are many ways to achieve this look; keep layering simple as to not look to put together. Nudes and neutrals are a wonderful place to start and finish- they make anything you pair them with appear more natural and organic. You can also work in white and lace pieces. Add simple accessories like a  long pendant necklace and pair with barely there thin gold strappy sandals. Hair is a very important part to this look- waves are wonderful but this is an excellent time to try a shabby chic updo like the 3rd photo with the flowers.

Of course, if you need more inspiration, you could always put on some Florence + the Machine and get completely carried away. ;) 

Have a lovely day everyone!
